What Age Got to do with it?

No matter what age you are there is something thinking you are either to old or to for something. Having gotten married at 20 there are those who though I was to young. I knew a man who was in his sixties and he thought he was to young to be a grandfather. Age means nothing when God is involved.

When Abraham acted on faith and was circumcised he was 99 years old. Sadly, some people want to "live life" before putting it all aside to accept "restrictions" of Christianity. What we do not know is will we have tomorrow to live. Just this past week, a person driving down a road, passed a car and then slide into a tree. He had no more time. He going fast to somewhere but sadly he never arrived.

Gen 17:24-2724 Now Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. 25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. 26 In the very same day Abraham was circumcised, and Ishmael his son. 27 All the men of his household, who were born in the house or bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him. NASU

Waiting in life can bring lots of scars and tragedies. You are never to young or old to respond to God invitation to receive Jesus as your Savior. Why not respond today?
